2 quick questions.

1. What type bulbs are in the speedometer?

2. My climate control is acting weird. When I click the button to say...shoot the air on the windshield...and then change it to my feet, it takes a few minutes for it to change.

I read on some forum there was a way to fix this.

Any help?

thanks, Ryan

is your cluster JDM EL cluster?

 

1. I dunno

2. You will need - a soldering iron
- solder (duh)
- solder pickup braid (braided copper strand-absorbs the old)
- take out the climate control and when you get down to the motherboard you will notice many pins that stick through it and are soldered to it. The old solder had cracked and is not making a good connection (why it takes awhile to change). By applying the soldering iron to the old solder to melt it, apply the braid to absorb this and then apply new solder to make the connection clean again (its much easier that you'll think when you start looking at all that crap). But just go through and redo everyone so you dont have to try to figure out which ones are bad and arent back 3 months later doing it again

If you have "burnt out bulbs" on your climate control, this may fix that too.

1. The regular (not EL) gauge clusters take #74 bulbs; 5 that light up the cluster.

2. Follow what Slatelude said. I had the same problem a couple of months ago and it ended up being a bad solder connection. I resoldered the connection point and its as good as new.
